1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveThis study carried out to describe urban-rural differences in the trend of type 1 and type 2 diabetes among adults who have received medical treatment from public hospitals over the last five years.

methodsThe trends of adult diabetes assessed from September 1, 2013, to August 31, 2018, using hospital-based retrospective medical records of 299,806 adult patients in the adult medical outpatient and emergency units. Data were collected using a uniform data abstraction format. An extended Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test of the linear trend used to examine the trend over time.

resultsOf the total 299,806 adult patients, 3056 (1.02% (95% CI: 0.98-1.06)) patients were confirmed diabetes patients. The overall trend in the proportion of diabetes had increased from 6.8 to 14.3 per 1000 adult patients. The trend of type 1 diabetes increased for both urban from 1.0 to 2.2 per 1000 adult urban residents and rural from 1.2 to 2.6 per 1000 adult rural residents, with statistically a significant increase (χ

conclusionThe trend in the proportion of type 1 and type 2 diabetes increasing for both urban and rural residents, with a higher increase observed among women. These findings highlight health-care professionals and policymakers to design effective public health policies to treat each type of disease.
